1990 Map of Kings River Ranch

USGS Topo · Published 1990

About this map

Kings River Ranch anchors the high desert landscape of Humboldt County, positioned along the edge of the Kings River Valley. This 1990 provisional survey documents the transition from the alluvial floor to the towering Bilk Creek Mountains, which dominate the western half of the quadrangle. The map captures an arid environment where water sources like Fivemile Spring and ephemeral drainages such as Bilk Creek and Cherry Creek dictate the layout of cattle ranching operations and isolated tracks. The rugged western slopes are marked by geographic features like Agate Point and the deep incision of Black Canyon, while the eastern side follows the course of the Kings River. This topography reflects the late 20th-century character of Nevada’s Great Basin, showing a landscape defined by sparse human settlement and significant elevation changes.
